I really enjoyed the last thread and actually RTFT which is unusual for me. I've been lucky to never come across a CF so far but given how quickly the last thread filled up they really do walk amongst us!

Please feel free to share more stories for my entertainment, spelling and grammar mistakes are welcome!!

I have someone on my FB that I could cheerfully tell him to get to fuck if I saw him in real life

I've never met anyone so bloody entitled in my life

He's never worked a day in the 30+ years I've known him as 'I'm a free spirit who cant be tied down' (in other words,'I'm on the dole as I'm a lazy fucker')

He got a council flat in my hometown which is very student heavy and he was bloody lucky to get a flat as a single man

This flat (in a nice area) wasn't good enough for him and he wanted a house and acted amazed that he had to pay his own bills as 'thats what i pay my rent for'
(He claims uc and part of this is his rent payment)

Cue endless rants about how the council where against him because they refused a single man a 3 bed house (he can't afford a flats bills so God knows why he thought they pay a 3 bed houses bills) and somehow students and 'boat people' where the reason

Getting nowhere with them,he tried going to the newspapers and got nowhere with them either,so settled on daily moaning on FB

He spends all his benefits on flowers to lay on the graves of anyone (and he didn't know or is related to any of these people) who served in ww2 (doesn't matter if they where killed by a bomb or not,it's just they where around in ww2)

Then the photos of a random grave get put up on FB and he waits for the likes (he's not cleaning them,he just walks up,checks the dates,lays flowers on suitable dated graves,takes the picture and walks off-the local cemetery staff hate him)

He then spends his time either travelling to the graves (blagging free flowers from either shops or idiots who buy him a bunch) or eating for free through charities that feed and clothe the homeless (while moaning he has to sit with actual homeless people)

Somehow,he got a bungalow in a not so nice area and moaned about that too-'its too shabby' (it wasnt,just a tiny bit dated) 'too far away' (its a mile or so from where he wants to live) 'too dirty' (it wasnt and clean it) unfurnished (ask the charities mate) and 'loads of old people live too close' (its an older persons complex and god knows how he got it as the list for these properties is miles long)

And he moaned and moaned about the fact the council didn't send him a gardener to help with the slightly overgrown garden-it would have taken an afternoon to sort it out,a cleaner to clean it or a painter to decorate it for him (bring your own paint in the colours he wanted)

The charity gave him a coat that they'd had donated (a very expensive brand,i work full time and cant afford one of this brand) and he moaned about it as it wasn't the more expensive labelled brand he wanted (ditto trainers and other basics-they where all 'cheap brands' they where free mate!)

Someone's given him a brand new motorbike/scooter style with helmet and leathers and he's all over FB moaning that not only is he forced to live in a 2 bed bungalow,he's given shitty food (like meat and rice-he wants tesco finest and not tescos own) and cheap clothes for free (he wanted designer but these where asda),but nobody is paying the running costs of the bike (before this it was moaning that nobody paid his bus fares to and from graveyards)

Oh and he had a small dog (moaned nobody helped feed it or paid the dogs vet bills) and the poor thing died (should have been put down about 5 years before it did die as it was in agony and that would have been the kinder thing to do,but nobody offered) and he bought another dog

Endless moaning that the dog pisses everywhere (nobody has offered to train it) and he moans he can't afford to feed it almost daily (lots of 'can someone give dog a new home?I can't afford to feed him' then some sap will read this and give him £50 to feed the dog and give it a few weeks and the same status will go back up)

I have to sit on my hands everytime I open FB,it's pointless saying anything in there as his 'fans' will attack me (hence saying it to his face)

Entitled fucker

@Phoebesparrow He sounds mental!

EmShire · 27/08/2025 12:52

@Phoebesparrow He sounds mental!

He's a joke

It's all over FB at the moment about how all 'the students and boat people have taken all the doctors appointments'

The doctors appointments that are the NHS that he's taken from but never paid a penny to and because he can't get an appointment today (not next week when they can squeeze him in for his non urgent problem) he's kicked off on the phone and ran to FB to moan about it

He would have found something to whinge about if he had got in today

(Well to be fair,he's also moaning about a pothole that does need to be sorted out but it's at the other end of town to where he lives, and doesn't affect him at all but he's still moaning about it)

If I worked at the council,I'd duck and hide when he walked in

He boils my piss

I work full time with a disability and pay my taxes

To see this able bodied 'free spirit' not bother to get off his arse and work but be so bloody entitled is a joke

(I'm not bashing anyone on benefits,I've been on them myself at times and they are there to help people eat,not pay for bunches of flowers and petrol for FB likes)

EmShire · 27/08/2025 13:34

Do you think he might have some kind of personality disorder?

Collaborate · 27/08/2025 13:39

Nearly 20 years ago now. Sister and me not seeing each other that much so hard to buy presents. My birthday in March hers in September. One March she rang me apologising she didn't have the funds to get me more than a card and she would get me a present after she was paid. I told her not to worry and the card was fine. Got her a card and present for her birthday in the September.

Next March I just got a card from her again. No present, which was fine. No message from her. I simply assumed that it would be cards from then on. In September I sent her a card - no present.

Around a week later I got a call from my mother. "sister is wondering when she's going to get a present from you". I explained to my mum why I'd thought that we'd stopped getting each other presents. Next thing you know sister calls me. She's going mad, accusing me of treachery by telling my mum about it before raising it with her. Such rank hypocrisy. We have no contact with each other now.

smashinghope · 27/08/2025 13:56

Oh iv just thought of one!!!!

It was Christmas day and it was our turn to go to PILs for xmas dinner ( we dont do this anymore everyone comes to mine) and I cook all the dinner for everyone over there which this year was 11 people.

We had been up since 6am with our 2 excited toddlers and it was a very full on day for me cooking for everyone and not even in my own kitchen. We eventually sat down after cooking and tidying and i was dreaming of my own bed when my DHs cousin asked what we were doing on boxing day and i said, absolutely nothing ill be sitting in my jammies to which she replied "oh amazing can you take sophie tonight ( not her real name ) who's her 5 year old daughter as im working a shift in asda tomorrow at 6am"

I was young, and so taken aback i just meekly said ok, and off her mum popped whilst we had to get 3 young children back to ours and into bed - I could have honestly cried.

To make matters worse shes vegan and i literally had zero food for her apart from bread as our fridge was just stocked with all the leftovers and cheese.

Her mum was meant to pick her up at 11am and didnt turn up until 2.30pm.

Yes, sounds like he has EBF.

Entitled Bloody Fuckery

If this is my op,I agree

I was just trying to think of a name for it!

He's just plastered on FB personal medical details about a friend of his (who has genuine mental health problems) and that the council are not doing enough for either of them

Sick fucker has taken someone else's problems and turned them into 'the council are not doing enough for me and my friend,but mainly me'

Honest to God,they could give him a palace,servants and his own personal arse wiper with all bills paid for and he'd still find something to moan about!

whatsthatbloodycatdonenow · 27/08/2025 16:09

Just halfway through the first thread and loving it and remembered one of my own!

Ex landlord informed us he was planning on selling so we would need to vacate. Found a new house, moved in and all was well.

Then a month later I get a very affronted message from him asking why we hadn’t paid the council tax. I explained we had paid up to the date of departure and were now paying it in our new home. He was not very happy with this and told us we were expected to pay it for the full council tax year. After a lot of back and forth and even contacting the council to confirm we had done the right thing (I was losing my sanity at this point), I went back to him fully armed with the information required.

”But it’s not fair I have to pay it. I haven’t been able to sell the house yet.”

Blocked at that point but I never got back the several hours on the phone to him / local council 😂

I could share some more shocking neighbours ones - like the one where next door (current) rendered our garage wall. But instead I will give you cute but entitled.

That’s so sweet!

xsquared · 27/08/2025 21:06

@Phoebesparrow Why is he on your FB? Do you have mutual friends or are you both members of a local FB group or something? Could you not just block him?

KTheGrey · 27/08/2025 21:32

@Phoebesparrow
I reckon I would have to block him. He sounds absolutely awful.

YorkshireRose80 · 27/08/2025 11:11

I've shared this before I think. So, I lost my mum in 2019. We had a very difficult relationship due to her addiction and the circumstances in her death were quite traumatic. Then her life insurance didn't pay out and she didn't have a funeral plan. I had to go through the shame of crowd funding her funeral (although my friends had suggested it) and my friends and family raised the cost for a basic funeral in less than two days. Which was amazing.

My mum didn't own her home, nor did she have much money, so while clearing out her place (which she'd recently decorated on a budget and furnished) I began listing her belongings on Facebook Marketplace, to raise money for her ashes to be interred back where she was born, as per her wishes.

CF messaged me on the Friday, wanting to buy her desktop printer. Fine. However, it was my mum's funeral on that day, so I didn't read it or reply obviously.

He keeps on sending more messages through the day to get me to reply, he's not to know I'm at my mum's funeral, but I ignored him.

I reply on Saturday, it's £15 for a new £45 Epson printer. He agrees he wants it and we arrange for him to collect from my mum's same day, as I'm there with my friend, doing more sorting and cleaning.

He texts to say he's on his way and adds "£10, okay?" Um, no. Not okay. It's £15. He arrives and I tell him it's £15. He starts pulling a face, I'm like, "As you can see, this is a sheltered accommodation, not my house. I've lost my mum and I'm raising money to bury her. So it's £15. The software is all there unopened, it's good as new!"

He huffs and puffs, he then pulled out a wad of about £300 of £20 notes and very reluctantly pays up.

He then asks what other things I am selling, so I show him around. He says he likes a beautiful side table and asks how much. I say £20. He replies, "But can I have it for free?" I repeat that sadly not, I'm raising money to bury my mum, remember?

He then starts literally poking around all of my mum's belongings like he's at a boot sale and asks, "So what is here that I can take for free then?"

I'm normally very outspoken and defend myself and others with confidence. I should have said, "Absolutely nothing you vulture, piss off!", but I didn't say that, as I was too numb, exhausted and not firing on all cylinders so I apologised that nothing was for free. He took his printer and fucked off.

It was only afterwards that his entitlement and rudeness actually clicked and I was so angry with myself for not telling him to fuck off and sending him packing empty handed.
In hindsight I was utterly numb and just in practical mode, I wasn't "me" at all. I ended up having a mental breakdown six months later. I still get angry when I think of that prick!

Really sorry that happened to you ❤️

xsquared · 27/08/2025 23:18

That is utterly despicable, not just cheeky of him. @YorkshireRose80 So sorry that happened to you.

Phoebesparrow · 28/08/2025 09:16

@xsquared @KTheGrey I would block him but we have mutual friends and it's more trouble than it's worth,I can't be doing with the smear attack I know he'll unleash if I do

Plus,I want to see what he's ranting about so that when I go back to my hometown (I moved away years ago) and see him,I can tell him what I think about his latest rant and how entitled I think he is

It'll be water off a ducks arse as he has no self awareness at all but if he unfriends me himself,the trash has taken itself out and saves me from doing it

He just pisses me off with his 'I want,i demand,i'm worth more than what your offering me' attitude

I used to be involved with running an annual event (thing small festival type) where a couple of hundred of people would attend.
Normally it was held in the grounds of a country hotel where some of the organisers would stay in rooms while the rest (and everyone attending the event) would camp.
One of the organising team would always opt to camp as they said they preferred a tent over a "posh" hotel room.
Come the first morning, said team member approached me and asked me for my room key as she wanted to have a shower. It wasn't even a polite ask, just "can I have your room key as I need a shower" while standing there holding their wash-kit, needless to say I handed it over somewhat dumbfounded. This proceeded to happen every morning (we stayed there for 3-4 nights) and from then on, for the next few years. This really grated as they never once asked if it was ok, they just took it as read that having booked a room I was willing to share my facilities with them (her DH used it as well), they even made a joke of it saying why did they need to pay for a room when they had my facilities on hand.
One year they approached me holding wash-kit and hand outstretched wanting my key and I was able to tell them I wasn't in a room that year (was in my Moho). They went off trying to find someone else to demand a room key from.🤪

Nourishinghandcream · 14/12/2025 01:00

Another one that has just come to mind.

Many years ago when I was in my early 20's, a GF and I decided to walk part of the SW coast path, taking 3-weeks off work, stopping in youth hostels and eating in pubs/cafes. Sounded idyllic and after planning for a couple of months, we got the train down to Bournemouth ready to make a start.
First day, my "friend" decided that all that walking wasn't what they wanted after all and as they worked for British Rail and had a free travel pass (I didn't and had to pay full price), we should hop along the coast walking just the bits from station to YH!
It got better, they announced that they could not afford to eat at a pub/cafe every day but as I earned more than them, I should pay for them!
Needless to say our friendship fell apart and we went home after just 2-weeks, it would have been an even shorter holiday but we made friends with some Aussies (also doing the SW coastpath) and their friendship gave me some incentive to carry on.
Even on our last day she pulled a fast one. She decided to get the train back while I went by coach (finances now being stretched after financing her for a fortnight).

Didn't see her much after that but another friend of ours did later mention to me that my "friend" could not understand why I was now so distant.☹️

An acquaintance did a Go Fund Me to pay for ‘essential dental work’ that left her in pain, and when I bumped into her some months later, she had a full set of Turkey teeth. Felt relieved that I didn’t donate.

I held a joint party with a friend and used an expensive table cloth of mine that was a gift from my parents. The friend offered to launder the linen afterwards, and as I had put a lot of work in to the party beforehand, I thought, why not?

She returned a thin plain bedsheet back to me and swore blind this was my table cloth. Even though my tablecloth was distinctive as it had a subtle hand embroidered design on it. She’s actually quite wealthy and could easily afford to buy one!

There are so many CF…
